Has anyone stayed at the new Coral Lodge resort?

I haven’t been out there, but it sounds like it’s pretty remote and the owners are in the process of putting on the finishing touches. Apparently driving there is possible in the dry season with a 4×4, but not recommended in the rainy season. They fly you out on a local puddle jumper to the San Blas islands, and then boat you around the coast to the resort. The web site looks good and it looks like a nice place, especially for diving and snorkling in unspoiled waters. The property apparently is right on the edge or very near the lands that are controlled and protected by the Kuna indians, an area that has been protected with very limited development and tourism allowed. But expect rustic. They’re getting power generation installed, and water collection and purification. I mean, this one is “out there.” You can contact the hotel’s owners by emailing David at [email protected] for additional information, rates, and availability.
